First published in 1985 by Moorland Press, The Light Railways of Britain & Ireland has remained unavailable for more than twenty-five years, until now. Re-released by Pen & Sword, this is a thorough and engaging book that covers, in depth, the fascinating story of Britain's last railway development, the Rural light railways, constructed as a result of the Light Railways Act 1896. Rigorously detailed, it charts the overall history of the last great railway boom in Britain Ð the light railway boom Ð from 1896, to the beginning of the Great War in 1914. During this period a large number of narrow and standard gauge lines were constructed in both Britain and Ireland, in order to serve and open up areas in both countries that, at the time, lacked adequate transport links. This book tells the story of how these lines were constructed and why, in most cases, they eventually failed, due to post-First World War road competition. Authored by two highly acclaimed writers of transport history, this is a true testament to, and a timely reminder of, Britain's last railway development.

Excerpt from Practical Hints for Light Railways: At Home and Abroad The question and cost of transhipment has been much over-estimated, and magnified out of all pro portion to the actual difficulties involved. At the present time thousands of tons of goods are brought to railway stations in carts, and trans ferred to trucks under difficulties greater than would be the case if proper arrangements were made at the junction of a narrow with a wide gauge line. What is required is to give facilities to the farmer and trader which would make it worth their while to dispense with cartage, and at the same time to construct a railway which would give the investor not less than 4 per cent. For his money. To attain this end it may be taken that lines of 2-feet or 2-feet 6-inch gauge, generally not less thanat Home and A broad.
